well.. we went to the play..Macbeth and it was like.. wtf.. so fake... and... stupid.. if noone had read the play they'd have NO Flippin idea what it was about.. it was a comedy too.... uh.. the only thing out of the ordinary were people narrating the story.. and the fact they left out.. like everything in the play that was important..

there was this d00d with terrets there.. XD.. he was like randomly SCREAMING.. it was kinda funny...





Meninginomis


Symptoms of IICP are:


  • *Headache usually just after waking and lessening as the day goes on Most days i have a headache now.. esp on weekends.
  • *Vomiting usually just after waking, with or without nausea This year.. especially last month i'd wake up and puke. every day. For no reason.
  • *Mental changes, often sluggishness or drowsiness OMG i am soo tired all the time now.. and i dont want to do anything... its so horrible
  • *Uncoordinated, clumsy movements I often find myself randomly.. about to fall over.. so i take a step back and hold on to something..
  • Seizures ..i have not experienced seizures XD



Brain Stem Tumors (Midbrain, Pons, Medulla Oblongata)

Tumors of the brain stem can produce a variety of symptoms.
The most common
symptoms are vomiting, usually just after awakening, and a
clumsy, uncoordinated walk (ataxic gait).
Muscle weakness on one side of the face causes a one-sided smile or drooping eyelid.
Difficulty in swallowing (dysphagia) and
difficulty with speech


(dysarthria) are also common
symptoms. In addition, abnormalities in the functioning of the eye nerves
produce "crossed eyes" or decreased vision.just the normal not being able to see stuff far away
*Headache, usually just after awakening, may also occur.yep yep
*Head tilt,Seriously i find myself with my head tilted to the right.. all the time.. i duno why..
*drowsiness,That's an understatement
hearing loss,not really..
one-sided muscle weakness (hemiparesis),no....
and personality changes may be present.
*Symptoms may develop gradually.

i guess i do.. I duno.. well yeah.. im realizing more things..

Cerebellopontine Angle Tumors (Usually Acoustic Nerve Tumors)

*The earliest symptom is ringing or buzzing in the ear (tinnitus).Since like forever.. ive had.. I wouldnt neccisarily call it a ringing or buzzing.. but i hear a noise sometimes... noone else hears it.. and it's random.. i dont really like it..
Less often, dizziness (vertigo) may occur.
As the tumor grows, additional symptoms such as deafness, and others similar to those of a brain stem tumor may
occur. (see figure 3)



Cerebral Hemisphere Tumors

Frontal Lobe Tumors

Common symptoms include one-sided paralysis (hemoplegia),
seizures,
*defective memory,Well.. i often dont remember what i was talking about in the middle of a conversation... or i say the wrong word or soemthing completely different..
?impaired judgment,I duno.. i put humans into 2 groups.. Stupid and non stupid.. theres like 8 people in the non stupid group..
*and personality or mental changes.yar.
If the tumor is at the base of the frontal lobe,
loss of sense of smell (anosmia), no.. not really.... but for some reason.. EVERYTHING smells like cat pee..
impaired vision, and not out of ordinary
a swollen optic nerve (papilledema) may occur. i dont think so?

*Mental or personality changes cha
and a clumsy, uncoordinated walk (ataxic gait) are common symptoms if the tumor involves both the left and right frontal
lobes. (see figure 2)

*shrug*

Parietal Lobe Tumors

Seizures,no
speech disturbances if the tumor is in the dominant (usually left) hemisphere,eh.. a little but not severe..
and loss of ability to write(agraphia) are common symptoms. i <3 writing..
Spatial disorders,dont think so...
such as difficulty with body orientation in space or no
recognition of body parts, may also occur. (see figure 2)

no

Occipital Lobe Tumors

Blindness in one direction (hemianopsia) and seizures are common
symptoms. (see figure 2)

noperz

Temporal Lobe Tumors

These tumors usually are "silent." They often cause no symptoms other than
occasional seizures or language disorders (dysphasia). (see figure 2)

*shrug*


Subcortical Tumors

One-sided paralysis (hemiplegia) is the most common symptom.no
These tumors may invade other lobes of the cerebral hemispheres and produce symptoms common to tumors in those locations. ok..

If the tumor invades the thalamus, the sense of touch may be impaired.

nope

Meningeal Brain Tumors

These tumors cause symptoms usually because of pressure and compression
rather than by growth into brain tissue. Symptoms depend on the location of the
tumor. (See the description of symptoms by location.)

k..

Metastatic Brain Tumors

Symptoms depend on the location of the tumor or tumors in the brain.
Headache, nausea, and vomiting are common, because of the swelling
(edema) that frequently accompanies these tumors. For specific symptoms, see
the description of symptoms by location. yeaaa



ok the majority of these are repeating so il only paste the new ones.


Spinal Cord Tumors

Symptoms of these tumors depend on the nerves involved. (see figure 8) Tumors
of the thoracic area may cause a "girdle pain" in the chest that worsens with
coughing or sneezing. This pain is often worse when the person is lying down. Sometimes.. My chest randomly hurts and i duno why.. it hurts worse when i breathe... so i just dont.. Eventually it goes away.. within 16-30 seconds or whatever..

Tumors in the cervical or lumbar areas may cause neck, arm, back, or leg pain. right now my neck hurts SOO bad.. but for a different reason.. Lol but random places on my body randomly hurt for random reasons o_O

Weakness, muscle wasting or spasms, and sensory changes are other common
symptoms. Sometimes i randomly twitch.. This occurs most often when i am laying down..
Decrease or lack of bowel or bladder control may occur, depending on the location of the tumor. wel... generally i go to the bathroom 2 times a day unless i am sick.. I thought this was normal but apparently its not o_O





Um. i also have a small lump on the right side of my head behind my ear.. its behind both ears but it's noticably bigger on my right side.. I also think my corpus collosum is kinda dead.. because they SAY thats what enables the 2 halfs of your brain to work together... and do math really well. I cant do math at all... I dont knoe 3 x 4.. Seriously i dont.. without thinking about it and using my fingers..

So really.. i have no idea.. i could have it.. i could not.. usually i either have all or none of the symptoms listed in those categories..

Blah i dont careeeeee

Maybe im paranoid..

Maybe im looking for a reason to die?

maybe BOTH!#Q@#%(

omg lolz~

but i duno.. in the event that i do mysteriously randomly die... Maybe someone will know what happened..

Because my dad would go
"Oh no.. She's dead.. now we have to spend money to bury her. GOd whatever will i do without her social security money!?!!?"

he prolly wouldnt even say "I wonder why?"

cuz he's an idiot..

I *KNOW* There *IS* Something wrong with me.. Unless i'm really a man.. (That would be a good thing too though... XD)

BUt noone apparently cares.. so i watch mystery diagnosis to find out what it could possibly be... But those are like... Rare.. diseases or whatever.. i duno. but..

Even if i do... find out what is wrong with me.. There's nothing i can do about it.. Besides.. maybe find out how much time i have left and whatnot.. LOL

im prolly making you all upset or something.. i duno.. so ill shut up and like.. XD

eat alfredo or something..
